I am based in Oregon, US. I work in the EDA [http://www.answers.com/topic/electronic-design-automation#Wikipedia] industry.

I am an Open Source Software enthusiast. Since I do not have sufficient technical background, I try to contribute to OSS I use in the non-coding aspects like testing, opening bugs etc.

I mostly contribute to Mozilla products like Firefox, Camino, Thunderbird. Ubuntu is my first non-Mozilla effort. I use Ubuntu on two of my machines - one laptop and one desktop - both as primary operating systems.
